Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

A triangular shaped stack of tin cans has 8 cans in the first row and 8 rows in all.

In each successive row one can is removed.

i.e. in first row there are 8 cans

in second row there are 7 cans

in third row there are 6 cans

...

The explicit formula which tells about the number of cans in row n is:

an=9-n

(Since a1=8 is satisfied only by this formula)

Number of cans in fifth row are:

a5=9-5=4

Hence, number of cans in fifth row equals:

4

The rule is that one can will be removed each row, so in the fifth row there will be 3 fans.

First you have to make all the fractions have a common denominator to add them so since 3/16 is the largest denominator you have to convert the others to have the denominator of 16. 1/8 = 2/16. 1/4 = 4/16. so if you add the numerators that’s 3 + 2 + 4 = 9. so the answer would be 9/16, and this cannot be simplified so it is your final answer:)

Hence in the given case,

For the unpaid amount of $38,200 IRS can assess either Mr.peterson or Mrs.Peterson for the entire deficiency as both are jointly and severally liable for the tax paid before they got divorced.
